The previous poster is right, you don't have a clue. American and Canadian auto workers priced themselves out of work. The auto workers make the equivelant of $71.00/hr. That is their hourly salary plus all benefits. Even when they are laid off they make $31.00 plus full benefits. Please don't expect me to cry for the auot workers,they did this to themselves...oh and these are the auto workers without higher education.
